‘A debut of rare individuality and distinction. Katie Ward inhabits each of her seven eras, with a fluent and intuitive touch, and sentence by sentence, deft and mercurial, she surpasses the readers’ expectations. What is set down on the page has a rich and allusive hinterland, so that the reader’s imagination has a space to work, and what is unsaid has its own fascination. The writing is alive with fresh and startling perceptions.’
